SESSION INFO
Tuesday, January 24, 2023
11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Session Type: Workshop
Have your staff ever attended a training and returned to the office excited to try new strategies only to have that excitement fizzle out? Come learn how one agency has created an EBP (Evidence Based Practices) Now! Initiative that uses movie trailers, cartoons, newsletters, and monthly staff-led boosters to maintain excitement and engagement around EBP. Does your staff struggle with comfort levels when using evidence-based practices? Or are you simply looking for better buy-in with Cognitive Based Techniques? Join us as we share how to create a learning culture where using evidence-based practices is staff driven, exciting, embraced, and fun! Is your staff interested in having more opportunities for engagement in evidence-based practices? Discover inventive ways to reinforce training previously learned by officers, build a strong skill foundation, help form positive relationships with co-workers, and be able to provide additional support to maximize changing offender behavior.
